[FAQ]

I’ve been reading up on Creator Mode and I want to try it out for my profile. The articles say it’s in the ‘Resources’ section of my profile, but when I look, I cannot find it. I only see ‘My Network’ and ‘Salary Insights’.

Is it hidden somewhere else? Or maybe it’s not available for all accounts? I’m using the mobile app, maybe it’s on desktop only? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Right, let’s get that sorted for you.

Quick Answer: You can activate it from the ‘Resources’ section on your main profile page, which is visible on both desktop and the mobile app. If it’s not there, your app or browser may need a quick refresh.

The process itself is simple, but the crucial step is choosing the topics that will define the content you plan to create.

First, navigate to your LinkedIn profile and scroll down past your main dashboard to find the ‘Resources’ section. Second, you should see and click on the ‘Creator mode’ link. LinkedIn will then present a screen explaining the changes that will be made to your profile, like making ‘Follow’ your primary call-to-action. Third, and this is the most critical step, you will be prompted to select up to five topics as hashtags. This decision is directly tied to your content strategy, as these hashtags signal to your network the kind of text articles, video explainers, or image-based data you will be creating. Finally, after selecting your topics, you simply confirm the choice to turn the mode on.

Cheers,

Jeff
